THE SCOOP #259

Welcome back to THE SCOOP! I’m counting down the days until the bright pink cast on my right leg comes off. If all is well I’ll go from a cast to a walking boot on Friday. I’ve been wheelchair and bed bound for 6 weeks. Oh, I can’t wait to walk and begin styling my home again! I’ll be in a walking boot for about 4-6 more weeks until my ankle is totally healed. A big huge thank you to all my friends and family who helped me so so much! And thank you to my fabulous readers for sticking with my and praying and encouraging me! Your friendship means more than you will ever know!!!!

Thank you so much for taking time out of your busy schedules to link up with us and find inspiration each week!

I can imagine how difficult it must be for an able bodied person to be “laid up” and in a wheelchair.
I have used a power chair for 14 yrs now and it isn’t bad at all. I just zip around the house getting all sorts
of tasks done.
Hang in there: It will be over soon.

I think being bed-bound is the worst when you’re a home decorator. You just sit there looking around your home at all the things you want to get done, and you can’t do any of it. Good luck! And thanks for hosting a great party.

I broke my ankle once and had to have surgery as well. Not being able to put weight on it made it difficult to even load or empty the dishwasher. Things that you take for granted are frustrating. Hope you are back to normal soon.

Thanks for the party. It was a good way to start the morning. Glad you’ll be in a boot soon! I feel your pain–fell at Disney World(!) a couple of years ago and broke my shoulder. It was the only time where I wished I could close my eyes and when I opened them it would be 6 weeks later!

Looking forward to reading all the wonderful link ups. Praying all goes well and you can get the cast off on schedule. A word of caution. Be sure to pay attention to how your hips and back feel while in the boot. If at all possible try to wear a shoe on the other foot of comparable height. My sweet girls had to go in for many chiro adjustments after being in a boot because it threw their hips off.

Welcome to my blog and my life!

I’m an empty nester living with my wonderful husband Bobby at StoneGable. Our home often feels like a hotel, filled with family and friends. I love all things HOME AND GARDEN! Well, except ironing and maybe cleaning the garage! I’m a life-long learner and am on a quest for new things to learn and do… especially when it concerns anything domestic.Living by grace, I strive to be positive and purposeful… living large and loving all those who cross my path.
